Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Martha Stewart's sonic spookathon bodes well for her new alliance with Rhino Records. The 40-minute, single-track CD steals the Halloween thunder from tired, hokey hits like "The Monster Mash" and leaves you scratching your head over why such a masterful menagerie of menacing sounds hasn't hit the market sooner. Trick-or-treaters of timid stock will want to steer clear of doorsteps fraught with Stewart's frightful cacophony. From the unmistakable scrape of knives being sharpened to the rattly clang of rusty chains, what's here is perfect for goose bumps. A laugh so sinister that it could only issue from the larynx of a lunatic comes near a witchy cackle, howling winds, thumping human heartbeats and the hair-raising rustling of branches. This is not for scaredy cats (nor, probably for kids under six), but it is apt to play a sizeable part in serving up a well-deserved scare to those in search of an authentic case of Halloween creeps. That is not to say this record will suit the needs of every Halloween host, though. The mix of movie-quality sounds is not varied enough to keep from getting monotonous at parties, so it makes most sense for high-traffic, quick stop-in scenarios--a haunted house, say, or standard-issue candy dispensing to a steady stream of neighbourhood ghouls. As a bonus, the indefatigable Stewart includes a booklet of Halloween how-tos, putting perfect caramel apples and just-so pumpkin-carving parties within the reach of crafty revellers. --Tammy La Gorce
